- Vehicle conditions (amount of load, number of occupants, etc.)
- Road conditions (grade, slipperiness, shape, bumps, etc.)
- When visibility ahead is poor (rain, snow, fog or smoke, etc.)
- When the detected object is something other than a vehicle, motorcycle,
bicycle or pedestrian
xA domestic animal or other animal (a dog or deer, etc.)
xA guardrail, telephone pole, tree, fence or wall, etc.
- Even if the obstacle is a motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian, depending on
the brightness of the surroundings as well as the relative movement, and
aspect or angle of the object, there may be cases when the system can-
not detect it.
- When the system determines that operation by the driver (based on
accelerator pedal operation, braking, steering wheel angle, etc.) is
intended as evasive action
- Vehicle maintenance status (brake systems, tire wear, tire pressure,
whether a temporary spare tire is being used, etc.)
- When towing a trailer or another vehicle, etc.
- When the brakes are cold due to outside temperature being low or just
after starting the engine.
- When the brakes are overheated on downhill grades (braking effective-
ness is reduced)
- When driving in rain or after washing the vehicle (the brakes are wet and
braking effectiveness is reduced)
- Recognition conditions of the stereo cameras
In particular, the function may be unable to stop the vehicle or may not
activate in the following cases.
xBad weather (for example heavy rain, a blizzard or thick fog)
xWhen visibility is poor due to sand, smoke or water vapor in the air or
when the vehicle in front or oncoming traffic causes water, snow, dirt,
dust or other substances to obscure the view through the windshield
xWhen driving at night or in a tunnel without the headlights on
xWhen driving at night or in a tunnel when there is a vehicle in front that
does not have its taillights on
xWhen approaching a motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian at night
xWhen ambient light is poor in the evening or early morning
xWhen a vehicle, motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian is outside the area
illuminated by the headlights

dawn, sunset or headlight beams, etc.)
xWhen there is snow, frost, dirt or dust on the windshield or it is clouded
xWhen fluid has not been fully wiped off the windshield during or after
washer use
xWhen the target cannot be correctly recognized because the stereo
cameras’ view is obstructed by water droplets from rain or the window
washer, or by the wiper blades.
